PDF files and Android

Hi
I have a an issue that I hoping to get help with.
I've just done a foilo for ipad where I linked up multiple pdf files. Now my client want to have a folio for Android as well.
Question
Can I link to a pdf file that is in HTML Resources in a folio for Android?

We do not support PDF on Android at the moment. We are hoping to have that capability available in our next release, due sometime in April.

    Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
    Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

    You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
    1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
    2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

  • How to open a native PDF file in Android using AIR?

    Hello.I have created a flex mobile project to open and show a native PDF file in Android. I have tried three different methods below , but  I failed.
    1. I created a stagewebview and used "stageWebView.loadURL". I can see the PDF View in emulator but it didn't work in Android Pad (SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab 10.1). It showed blank screen.
    Note that I have installed AIR 3.3.
    stageWebView1.loadURL(new File(new File("app:/assets/ZUGH-2P.pdf").nativePath).url);
    2. I created a stagewebview and used stagewebview to load javascript. The javascript could run in emulator, but it didn't work in Android Pad. I failed again.
    stageWebView1.loadURL(new File(new File("app:/assets/JavaScripthtml.html").nativePath).url);
    3.  I imported stagewebviewbridge, which is the extended version of stagewebviewbridge. I created a stagewebviewbridge , but it could not run in emulator. I failed again.
    stageWebViewbridge1.loadLocalURL( "appfile:/assets/pdf.html");
    could any one give me some suggestions? Many thanks.

    @peterpan_cafuc,
    Sorry to say that I'm not sure of the answer, either.
    One suggestion would be to try something like File.openWithDefaultApplication(), although I've never tried it on mobile.
    Also, I poked around stackoverflow, and it looks like people have done this using Android Intents, but you might have to use a Native Extension  to do this in AIR.
    Apologies that I can't be more helpful.

  • How to rename a pdf file on android 4.0

    how to rename a pdf file on android 4.0

    If you have the latest version of Adobe Reader, you can go to Documents, make sure that the view is set to "Folder View". Navigate to see the file you want to rename, and then you can use the "manage" button to go into a mode to select the file you want to rename, then tap the "rename" icon, which looks like a text cursor.

  • Accessible PDF files and forms

    I am beside myself with the lack of help and/or interest in the Accessiblity area. We have been mandated to make all our PDF files accessible on our Web site. We have been able to master many of the issues regarding tags and form fields, but still have questions regarding updating the original PDFs without loosing the tag structure.
    Is there any options on the Adobe site that may concentrate on this area? I called tech support yesterday (Bronze contract), was on hold for 10 mins and got disconnected. After leaving my number, they never called me back again.

    The point was not having to create the tags again in a new file before
    replacing the pages containing the form fields in the old file. We have
    many forms that get updated right up to the last minute and to go through
    the tagging process is too time consuming. We do not use PDF Maker, but
    produce all the PDFs directly out of InDesignCS3 to Adobe Acrobat
    Professional (Distiller).
    Thanks for your reply.

    I am really suggesting replacing all of the pages. I was thinking that the
    tag structure would go with the replacement and you would need to create
    the other PDF with PDF Maker to keep the tagging. I may be wrong, but that
    was the view I had. If you replace a single page, I am not sure what might
    happen since that would generally not be done with PDF Maker.
    Since you already have the application process going, it is probably
    easiest for you to try the variations on replacing pages and such --
    basically what I would be doing.

  • Need Help ASAP  my State tax form is in a PDF file and the attachment in my email says Please wait

    Need Help ASAP  my State tax form is in a PDF file and the attachment in my email says Please wait...
    I tried downloading updates like it said to but it still will not display the document.  How do I print the PDF file ASAP

    Can you give us a LOT more info?
    What email client? What version of Reader (I can only assume you even have Reader at this point)?
    Please wait? I'm sure it says more than that, right?
    Have you tried simply saving the PDF (it IS a PDF correct?) to your desktop and opening it from there?
    Did you get this form from the IRS or did it come from somewhere else? If the IRS again, what version of Reader?
    Help us help you.

  • Is there a way to merge Static PDF files and PDF Forms

    Hi All,
    The issue I am facing is this: 1200+ PDF forms that employees
    will need to sign. The docs are being created in MS Word, and all
    have a standard signature block. We have prototyped using LiveCycle
    Designer 8 to add fields to static PDF files (print Word files into
    Acrobat, import into LiveCycle and paste in fields) but this is
    pretty labor-intensive to use with a minimum of 1200 forms per
    quarter.
    The employee forms go into a CF8/Oracle library app (stored
    as BLOBs) and served up for 7,000 or so employees to sign. Posted
    data goes back into database.
    Here is the issue:
    Does anyone know any way to use some combination of cfpdf /
    cfpdfform / cfdocument that will allow us to create ONE generic
    signature block form, 1200 static PDF files, and merge them on the
    fly?
    <cfdocument> apparently does not allow PDF data to be
    included with a <cfpdfform>, as I have tried outputting PDF
    variables, toBinary(PDF variable), PDF served by <cfcontent>
    and various other combinations.
    (If the non-form data were HTML, we could easily output in a
    <cfdocumentsection> of the cfdocument, and add the
    <cfpdfform source="#genericForm#" action="populate"> and be
    done with it. But, we can't.)
    <cfpdf action="merge"> with a combination of a static
    PDF file and a populated form results in a flattend PDF file with
    no form data.
    I am acutely aware that LiveCycle 8 uses the XFA schema, and
    regular PDF documents use a different schema. And, this may
    prohibit what we want to do.
    If anyone has experience with CF8 PDFs and PDF forms, or has
    any helpful thoughts, I would be appreciatively gross. Needless to
    say, this is a six month project that must be live at the end
    November.
    Thanks!

    As I mentioned on the other thread, the forms need to be
    flattened. CFPDF cannot flatten LiveCycle forms, only Acrobat
    Forms. The suggested solution was to use LiveCycle ES

  • To retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the doc in PM order

    Hello guys,
    I have a challenging task in from printing as follows,
    By using TC: IW3D we get print preview of PM Order Set (PM Print Program: YIPRJT01), currently the PRT document number prints in the PM Order. Now we have to insert the PRT documents (a PDF file) into the PM Order set rather than printing the PRT document number ( By using TC: IW33 by going OPERTIONAL TAB we will get the PRT document(a PDF file))
    The requirement is to retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the document in PM  order set with out navigating separately by using the TC: IW33.
    If you run the script in the print preview we can able to see PM the order set along with the PRT document (a PDF file).
    Thanks & Regards
    Vishnu

    I'm also trying to print PRT document with shop papers and still not able to do so. I selected "P" for print on the control key and it should print but still didn't print.
    If I understand it right, I think you are trying to do the same.
    Have you resolved this issue ?
    Thank you,

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images

    I am new to Indesign Server.
    I'm currently working on a pdf.
    I have a white blank pdf template.
    that I want to attach/glue it with images.
    How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images.
    Please, help me.
    Thanks.

    First step would be to make yourself familiar with InDesign desktop version.
    Whatever you intend to achieve, do it there manually. (see regular app docs or forums)
    Then try to automate your steps with scripting (see scripting docs or forum)
    If you can do it with a script in the desktop version, that script will likely also run in ID Server. (see server forum).
    If you can specify missing features not achievable thru scripting or manual use, reconsider to write a plugin (this forum).
    A seasoned C++ programmer will need a few months to learn the basics, wade thru tons of documentation etc. Alternatively consider to hire a consultant to do the development work for you.

  • PI 7.1 : Taking a input PDF file and mapping it to a hexBinary attribute

    Hello All,
    We have a requirement which involves taking in an input PDF file and mapping it to a message type with binary attribute and sending it to an R3 system.
    Can anyone please detail the steps or point us to the correct documents for setting up the scenario.
    The scenario is file to Proxy adapter. The part which we need assitance is pulling up the input pdf and mapping it to binary field.
    Thanks.
    Kiran

    Thanks Praveen,Mayank,Sarvesh and Andreas for your  valuable help with the issue.
    I was able to successfully pick up the binary PDF file from a file server , encode it using Base 64 and post it to R3.
    I used the following code snippet and added the mentioned jar files to create a new jar file which was used as java mapping in the operation mapping.
    import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformation;
    import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.*;
    import com.sap.aii.utilxi.base64.api.*;
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    public class Base64EncodingXIStandard implements StreamTransformation{
         String fileNameFromFileAdapterASMA;
         private Map param;
         public void setParameter (Map map)
              param = map;
              if (param == null)
                   param = new HashMap();
         public static void main(String args[])
              Base64EncodingXIStandard con = new Base64EncodingXIStandard();
              try
                   InputStream is = new FileInputStream(args[0]);
                   OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(args[1]);
                   con.execute(is, os);
              catch (Exception e)
                   e.printStackTrace();
    public void execute(InputStream inputstream, OutputStream outputstream)
                   DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) param.get("DynamicConfiguration");
                   DynamicConfigurationKey KEY_FILENAME = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
                   fileNameFromFileAdapterASMA = conf.get(KEY_FILENAME);
                   if (fileNameFromFileAdapterASMA == null)
                        fileNameFromFileAdapterASMA = "ToBase64.txt";
              try
                   while ((len = inputstream.read(buffer)) > 0)
                        baos.write(buffer, 0, len);
                   str = Base64.encode(baos.toByteArray());     //buffer);
                   outputstream.write("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><ROOT>".getBytes());
                   outputstream.write(("<FILENAME>" + fileNameFromFileAdapterASMA + "</FILENAME>").getBytes());
                   outputstream.write( ("<BASE64DATA>" + str + "</BASE64DATA></ROOT>" ).getBytes());
              catch(Exception e)
                   e.printStackTrace();
         byte[] buffer = new byte[1024*5000];
         ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
         int len;
         String str = null;
    I had to do the following configuration settings
    1)  Create a Sender Comm Channel with Adapter Specific message attributes and Filename checkbox checked.
    2) Use the Java Mapping in the Operation mapping.
    The scenario is working smoothly with out any issues.
    Thanks.

  • Saving a file pdf file and the file name appears on a PC with + signs in the name of the file - How do I eliminate the file name coming up with the + signs?

    A pdf file is created from a word document and then posted to our dealer portal.  It allows the dealer to open the pdf file and then either print and/or save off to a hard drive.  The issue is the file name has + signs in between all the words.  Is there a way to eliminate the file names coming up with the plus signs?  It is not being saved that way.  Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

    Use a proper file name for the WORD document. MS decided several years ago to allow spaces, but that is not standard and is likely what the issue is. A good alternative is to replace spaces in file names with underbars, "_".
